"When the audience started attacking the lane player, the lane bench cleared out and went after them."

From both sides of the bleachers, fans poured onto center court duking it out.

They picked up chairs and hit players, while coaches turned into referees trying to stop the fight.

"It just erupted," he added. "We just kept the cameras rolling-- we are filmmakers."

People from every corner of the court squaring up forgetting about the game.

"I`ve never seen anything like that at any basketball game I`ve ever been to in life."

The rivalry game ended without a winner since officials postponed the game.

WREG reached out to both schools following the incident. They both said they are doing their own internal investigation.They said the fight was started by players from both teams so they will work together to decide if it's necessary to discipline the two players.

They are also working together to make sure this doesn't happen again.
